I would be very interested to hear from anyone who has an Eplett (of whatever spelling!) in their tree. I have recently discovered a maternal Eplett ancestor who travelled to the USA, another to Canada, and at least one to New Zealand and another to Australia.
There is now a suggestion that one may have gone to South Africa and I would be keen to substantiate this if possible.
The Epletts seem to have originated in Cornwall and were largely miners of one sort or another.
Look forward to making contact.
